Starship V3 with tripled payload capacity and Raptor 3 cost reduction makes the $200/kg threshold achievable within 2-3 years of routine operations according to analyst projections. V3 economics at projected high-cadence operations approach this threshold, validating that the Suncatcher threshold is not just theoretically sound but practically reachable within the current Starship development roadmap.

## Supporting Evidence
**Source:** Basenor.com analysis connecting V3 payload economics to orbital data center thresholds, April 2026
Starship V3 economics analysis explicitly cites the $200/kg Project Suncatcher threshold as now achievable within 2-3 years of routine V3 operations, validating that this threshold remains the relevant target for orbital data center viability and that V3 represents the launch vehicle generation that can reach it.
